So I am slowly but surely pursuing the option of monetising your blog. I made my first referral sale via Amazon in the month of October, which at least means that I get to keep my Affiliates Amazon Program – if you don’t make a sale within a specific time frame, they close the account.
It turns out that you earn 4% from the sale of (horse) books and once you’ve referred half a dozen sales, this percentage increases to 6% – a good incentive!
Google Adsense is something I have had on this blog for years, but have only really looked at seriously in the past few months.
- September saw an increase in earnings of 153% from August
- October was 479% up on the earnings of September
- Although these figures are still in their infancy, it is encouraging to see them increasing so much in comparison to previous months!
I know to keep these figures going I need to keep putting content on this blog and promoting it. It seems Google pays you for a certain number of impressions of ads, and then of course if someone clicks on them from your site.
I have set up my mailing list in the hope of collecting the email addresses of people who are interested in equine education specifically and from here, know that I can promote posts on this blog as well as educational resources that I sell via TeachersPayTeachers and now TeachinaBox.
September was a strong month for sign ups and October has seen more signing up to get my free booklet 52 Steps to Kick-Start Your Equine Career. Have you signed up yet?
